Overgrown hedges and bushes at the junction of Kingsthorpe Grove, Mill Lane, and Harborough Road
Sent to West Northamptonshire Council less than a minute later. FixMyStreet ref: 8374169.
The report concerns overgrown hedges and bushes at the junction of Kingsthorpe Grove, Mill Lane, and Harborough Road in Northampton (postcode NN2 6NT). The precise location corresponds to the What3Words reference dice.bits.dart , which pinpoints the signal-controlled junction area.
The concern raised was that the vegetation at this junction is beginning to obscure both a road directional sign and the traffic lights, creating a potential visibility and safety issue for drivers approaching the junction.
Vegetation is coming from school site - private land - will need enforcement.
